How should a developer setup Azure for a customer?


I don't want ShortTermDeveloper@hotmail.com to be the admin of my Azure account. I also don't want to share the Admin@MyBusiness.com password with a bunch of developers. What I want (I think) is what we're used to - admin account(s) and sub accounts, even groups.

What's the best way to handle user management for an Azure account for a business?

What variables matter?

Thanks


Solution

  • Checkout the "Sign up for Windows Azure as an organization" page on windowsazure.com: http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/documentation/articles/sign-up-organization/

    Quoting from the site:

    "Once this tenant has been created, an admin can then issue organizational accounts to each of its employees/students and assign licenses to those accounts based on which cloud service subscriptions they need access to, such as Windows Azure."

    Sounds like what you need!
